You don't see many yellow bikes around any more, at least not down in here in West Palm Beach any way. Plenty of GSXRs, but most of them are blue or black and a few are have the Corona paint scheme. Personally, I have a red 636 and love being able to ride it all year long. Good luck with your new baby.

either red or yellow, the blue is the most common gsx-r color i see ... you dont want to be like everyone else.

i know it might have been last year they made the gsx-r in the gray/black or something close to that ... but i dont think it was on all models maybe just the 600 & 1000 or possibly just the 1000.

I believe that the grey bike in the background it a 2003 GSX-R600. Keep up the votes!

Lol matt they dont even MAKE red one, nor is it a choice :tongue:
And I cant get a CBR, I dont fit on the damn things. No Ducatis availible around here. I prolly dont fit on them either.

They do not make a red 2004 Suzuki GSX-R600, therefore what you saw was NOT a red one :p

I like the yellow/black. I find it flashy and racy.I also like the silver/black. I just sold my '69 ProStreet Corvette and am looking for a 2002 Z06 Corvette.I can't decide if I want a yellow with black interior or silver with black interior. I was looking to get a bike like your looking at or a CBR but I know a lot of people with bikes and they all have horror stories of how they have ALL been in one kind of accident or another on them.If you get one don't kill yourself and watch out for the A**holes on the road.

There are 2 kinds or riders. Those who have gone down and those that will go down. Like you said it's most of the idiots on the roads, my ditch into oncoming traffic cost me around 2k in damage cause they guy who ran the light bailed.
For the Vette go for the Silver/black.

I like the yellow one (which happens to be winning right now), but it will be hard to find a matching set of leathers for it. So that leads toward the blue.
Black is dead sexy, buts its plain, and very hard for other drivers to see.

Matt: Ohhhh. :)
C.Charles: As I am 6'4" my legs are too long when I sit on a CBR (The flange on the tank sticks right into the side of my leg). The Gixxers are the only ones I fit on nicely. Aint it a shame? :lol:

have you sat on a ZX6R? i have an 03 636 and i think it's the tallest amongst the 600 class. It's the only 600 that im not flat footed and I'm only 6'. Anyway the new Gixxers are hella nice but my vote gotta go for the blue and white.
gotta stick with the original Suke color!
--keep the rubber side down brotha!

The R6 was the only other thing that came close to fitting, but it is still like a TAD too small =/ The top of my knee just barely touches the groove thing on the tank. I could ride one, but if I am gonna fork over 11,300CAD (8? USD) I am gonna get one that fits 100%

must not be a lot of cops in your neck of the woods j-rock... every cop around here hates bikes and you very rarely see a bike w/ a license plate that isnt all bent up or put in a very hard to see place.

ahhh! we got a fare share of cops over
here... just dont be a squid while they're around. haha
a saturday or sunday ride usually puts 300 miles on my bike... the nice places are not that close to my place but the backroads are tiite so its all good.
Va has safety inspection every year so i try to keep everything legal to avoid the hassle. Just gotta release the juice on the right time and place. I dont have problems with LEO's they're cool, just got to respect them if they're around. LOL!
always wear your gear! better to be sweaty than sorry. haha

Dont worry about it, I got a set of Joe Rocket mesh pants/jacket/boots in the works, as well as a shoei and gloves.
I am going to learn to kneedrag or die trying.
